Proverbs 29:11 A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back.

I wanted to see what His Word has to say about emotions, so I searched emotions and this is the answer that came back.

I find myself crying more than ever. I feel things more deeply than ever. It is not sadness nor is it something overwhelming, but if I were to guess, I believe it is connected to a feeling of helplessness.

God has been so gracious to me and rather than being grateful I am sad that others are missing out on God’s mercies. 

That is not up to me.

What do you need? I don’t know, but God does.

How can I reach you? I don’t know but God does.

It is hard not to get emotional about all that is wrong in the world.

Was it always like this? Perhaps but today we have the ability to see what is happening nearly everywhere because this information age is in your face where two thousand years ago news traveled slowly.

God knew everything instantly, because nothing was news to Him.

Look at how long God had to put up with man’s folly before He sent His Son into the world to answer all of our questions.

Father, show me what to do about this. Amen

Oh. Yes Father, but how much longer do I have to hold this back?

“Be patient.”

Delusional

Isaiah 66:4

I also will choose their delusions, and will bring their fears upon them; because when I called, none did answer; when I spake, they did not hear: but they did evil before mine eyes, and chose that in which I delighted not.

Note closely in this verse that God did not create their delusion, only used it to serve a purpose.

2 Thessalonians 2:11

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

In this case God sends a strong delusion. God has just cause to do that.

2 Thessalonians 2:9-10 English Standard Version

9 The coming of the lawless one is by the activity of Satan with all power and false signs and wonders, 10 and with all wicked deception for those who are perishing, because they refused to love the truth and so be saved.

In Isaiah 66:4 it was His children Israel. In 2 Thessalonians 2:11 it is people who have denied Christ.

If you have accepted Christ by faith you need not worry about being delusional.
